My cousin is at a polling place in central Brazil and Bolsanaro is ahead 4 to 1.
Brazil either elects their Trump, Bolsonaro, or they're the next Venezuelan
That's a ridiculous assertion. But then again in Latin America they've struggled to find sensible candidates. Either they're pro-American or anti-American, can't have anything in between. Either way they're fucked.
They're pro America now!
My family in Rio does not stop at red lights at night. Earlier this year my cousin, who is a Federal Judge in Brazil had to drive the wrong way down a one way street to flee an attempted carjacking.
Brazil is so fucked up that it takes over a month to get a delivery from Amazon
Bolsonaro is the right man for the times.
Wishing them all the best
Brazil has been fucked up for a long time. Venezuela has been fucked up for a long time too. I mean, I remember a client of mine who was dating some young hot Venezuelan, this must have been like 2001 time, Chavez had only been in power a short time, and he spoke of that sort of stuff going on there around that time and before.
While Brazil hasn't been too far right since the military was in power up until 1985, this doesn't mean the country didn't have problems before that.
As you can see from 1980 when the murder rate was more than double the US's murder rate at present, it went up from 11.7 in 1980 to around 15 in 1985 when the military govt kicked out of power.
There are reasons for the high murder rates, like poverty which is still a massive problem.
Now, Trump's going on about how unfair things are for the US, but he doesn't consider that these poorer countries would be better off and richer if they didn't have the US screwing them over.
Being pro-American can often mean being corrupt in Latin America.
